Revocation power of attorney is a form you can use to end a power of attorney you signed before. Under Nebraska law, a power of attorney ends when you revoke it, but the end is not effective against your agent or another person who acts in good faith under it without knowing that it ended.[4] The most important thing, in this case, is to warn everyone about the revocation of the form.
